Modern Magic: A Practical Treatise on the Art of Conjuring
·
Professor Hoffmann
246
Occasionally
a
refractory
spectator
may
insist
upon
the
wrong
orange
(i.e.,
that
containing
the
genuine
coin)
being
cut
open
first.
As
you
have
offered
the
audience
the
choice,
you
cannot
well
resist
this;
but
it
makes
very
little
difference.
In
accordance
with
the
general
desire,
you
cut
open
the
orange,
and
show
the
coin
(No.
3),
drawing
particular
attention
to
the
mark.
Its
identity
being
fully
established,
you
offer,
for
the
general
satisfaction,
to
pass
the
same
coin
into
the
second
orange.
Being
satisfied
that
it
was
the
genuine
coin
in
the
first
case,
the
audience
will
the
more
readily
believe
that
it
is
so
in
the
second;
but
in
this
case
you
should
cut
open
the
second
orange
yourself,
as
it
will
be
necessary
to
again
substitute
the
genuine
florin
before
you
hand
the
coin
to
be
examined.
